Abstract: A control device for hybrid vehicle drive system includes an engine rotation speed control device performing a rotation speed control of an engine so that a rotation speed of an output shaft of the engine is assumed to be equal to a next gear shift stage input shaft rotation speed when an operation amount of an accelerator pedal increases from an operation amount smaller than a first predetermined amount to an operation amount greater than a second predetermined amount, at which gear stages are switched from a current gear shift stage to a next gear shift stage whose gear ratio is greater than the current gear shift stage, within a priority determining time, a front clutch engagement commanding device, a front clutch engaging device, a release side frictional engagement element releasing device, a motor generator rotation speed control device, and an engagement side frictional engagement element engaging device.

Abstract: A sewing machine includes a movable holder portion which holds a material to be sewn, a holder drive portion which transfers the holder portion during sewing, a needle drive portion which drives a sewing needle to sew, and a controller which intelligently regulates the holder drive portion and the needle drive portion. The controller includes a) an initial motion device which initially transfers the material to be sewn before sewing or during an initial stage of sewing, and b) an estimating device which finds the mass of the material to be sewn depending on a physical value such as at least one of a moving velocity of the material to be sewn at a predetermined period of time and a moving distance of the material within the amount of the predetermined period of time.
